Determined to play a decisive part in the campaign, Patton ordered General Truscott's forces to strike towards Palermo, with the ultimate goal of beating Montgomery to Messina. In his way was an Italian garrison at Agrigento on the coastal road. Truscott surrounded Agrigento and with the help of the Air Force, concentrated on eliminating the Italian artillery.
